Cezanne - Breaking Bats For Jesus

Reviews:


It's strange that the trajectory of indie-rock has recently abandoned the once-trademarked standard of fuzzed-out sonics and endearingly sloppy guitar melodies. Cezanne's mini-album Breaking Bats For Jesus sounds like it could've come out of Chapel Hill or Charlottesville circa 1993, but the songs have a power to rise above mere-throwback status and into their own post-slacker stratosphere. Cezanne is the now-NYC based one man band of John Daugherity, who has previously recorded under the name Ten Everlasting Seconds. Possessing a voice pitched almost flawlessly between worn and ragged, and airy and smooth, these seven songs instill fond remembrances of past peaks set by folks like Chavez, Archers Of Loaf and Pavement. No-nonsense indie-rock and roll like this is pretty hard to find nowadays, so why don't you let Cezanne transport you back to better days? All tracks clean.

- Fanatic


"John Daugherity's trash guitars and broken-down vocals achieve "lovely" by the same dropout arithmetic as the early '90s indie-rock that buzzed around grunge. Indeed, Daugherity's only major break with those atonal-because-we-wanna acts is a welcome one: he can actually sing."
